This week for Twinsie Tuesday, we are supposed to do a fictional animal print. After hurting my brain trying to figure out what to come up with, I decided to cheat. I remembered a mani I did last year that reminded me of a mermaid manicure, so I decided to do it again.
I started out with two coats of OPI Russian Navy. I then added a coat of Girly Bits Cosmic Ocean and finally, a coat of Cult Nails Toxic Seaweed.

This mani reminds me of mermaids because it looks like under water to me, with the seaweed floating around. So yes, I cheated, but I have a good reason for it right? ;0) I don't think it's too much of a stretch, heehee. What would have made it perfect would be the scales. Unfortunately, I don't have a stamper with that design, and I would have totally ruined it if it was freehanded.
What do you guys think of this one? Have you ever done a mermaid mani before?
I'm looking forward to seeing what ideas my twinsies came up with this week. Go check them out!
